Definitions

  • the invention relates to an elastic bandage in sleeve or tubular form for injured or injury-prone limbs according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such bandages which are configured in sleeve or tubular form, are usually used to correct, support and / or relieve injured or injury-prone limbs.
  • orthopedic or orthotic elements are also used for the same or a similar purpose, such as, for example, ballast, relief, support and / or correction inserts or fittings.
  • a particularly common field of application here are sports shoe inserts, where the main problem is that they are safely stabilized in the shoe to prevent slippage and thus to ensure a secure fit between foot and shoe.
  • the invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a device with which it is possible to eliminate the disadvantages described, the medical orthopedic or orthotic element quickly and easily without stressing too large a volume at the desired location of the limb measure while ensuring that the desired individual precise positioning is always maintained.
  • the invention is based on the essential idea of providing a per se known elastic bandage in sleeve or tubular form for positioning the desired orthopedic or orthotic element.
  • This bandage has according to the invention at certain points of its outer and / or inner surface at least one holder for releasably fixing orthopedic or orthotic elements, such as correction, support, relief and / or Bettungseinlagen or -passes, in particular shoe inserts on.
  • a preferred embodiment of the invention is that the holder is designed as a pocket, in which the insert or the fitting part can be inserted.
  • the bag provided for receiving the insert or fitting part is expediently at least one, beisp. open at its upper end.
  • the bag is open at two opposite ends in order to be able to insert or remove the insert or the fitting part more easily and quickly.
  • a preferred pocket closure may be a hook-and-loop fastener.
  • the holder may be formed as a wing-like tab, which is fastened with its one edge to the bandage and with its other open edges on the bandage, in particular by means of Velcro, can be fixed.
  • the tab is a right-angled, i. So is a square or rectangular, surface piece or that the tab is a triangular piece of surface.
  • the holder may also be designed such that it is a hook-and-loop closure surface for receiving the insert or the fit part on the bandage. This can then be. be formed edge-like, which can be covered by a correspondingly complementary trained surface piece for holding the insert or the fit part.
  • a further advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the fitting part at the respectively desired point of the bandage - be it outside or inside - not indirectly, as it were. by means of receiving pocket, covering surface piece o. The like.,
  • the holder is designed as a Velcro closure surface, which is provided at a desired location or in a desired surface area on the bandage and on which the fitting part directly - releasably - can be fixed, by means of a attached to the one patch surface complementary Velcro surface.
  • the bandage according to the invention has the significant advantages that it can be applied quickly and easily together with the correspondingly held inserts or fitting parts, as compared with a bandage or the like on the foot or on another limb fixed insert or fitting part claimed only a small volume and ensures precise positioning of the insert or the fitting part.
  • Figure 1 shows the elastic bandage according to the invention with an outside pocket for supporting a support.
  • Fig. 2 shows a modified embodiment thereof in the form of a wing-like tab in a rectangular shape
  • FIG. 4 shows a further embodiment of the holder in the form of a hook-and-loop fastener surface, which can be covered by means of a correspondingly formed surface piece,
  • Fig. 5 shows a further embodiment of the holder in longitudinal section
  • the illustrated elastic bandage 1 in Hommesential. Designed tube shape and intended for use on an injured or injury-prone foot 2 and ankle.
  • An orthopedically prescribed for this purpose support 3 in the form of an insert, a pad or a fit part should be placed at the level of the ankle to support it, without the risk of slipping, ie in elastic fixation.
  • the bandage 1 on the outside a holder in the form of a side pocket 4, in which the support 3 can be inserted.
  • Such a bag 4 is also provided on the sole side of the bandage 1, in which an insert 3a releasably inserted and thus there is safe and precise positionable.
  • the pocket 4 is open at one end 5, but fastened with its remaining three edges in a suitable manner to the bandage 1, for example by means of an elastic thread sewn.
  • the upper open end 5 of the bag 4 is formed closable.
  • a hook and loop fastener 6 is provided in the illustrated embodiment.
  • a wing-like tab 7 is provided in the modified embodiment of the holder of FIG. 2, a wing-like tab 7 is provided.
  • This can be seen as a "three-sided open pocket" and is, as shown, attached with its lower edge 8 to the bandage 1, while it is fixed with its three other open edges 9, 10, 11 on the bandage 1.
  • the bandage 1 has a correspondingly complementary designation region 12, which - in cooperation with the tab edges 9, 10, 11 - in the illustrated embodiment example is also designed as a hook and loop fastener.
  • the wing-like lug 7 is designed as a rectangular surface piece
  • the lug 7 ' is a triangular surface piece, whereby otherwise a corresponding configuration is provided as in FIG.
  • a hook-and-loop closure surface 14 is provided on the outside for attachment to the bandage, which surface can be covered by a suitably complementary surface piece 15 for holding the fitted part 3.
  • this Velcro closure surface 14 is formed as provided on the bandage 1 circumferential Velcro edge, which cooperates with a provided on the inside of the surface piece, correspondingly formed Velcro edge.
  • the holder is mounted on the inside of the bandage 1 and is in the form of a hook-and-loop fastener surface 17 which extends over the entire area of the sole of the foot.
  • the fitting part 3 can be releasably set directly at any desired location.
